Toriko is an alien (a chick [not that chick, let's think about the chicken sons, ok?] boy) who lives in the district of Yokohama of Tokyô and attends the six grade at the Nizi Nanatsu (Seven Rainbrows). He came down from his planet to Earth in order to find his brothers (or so it seems) Hachi Inu and Nyan Neko Chin Irozu and their mascotte, Cha·pi, and bring them back to their planet. But unluckily, his landing at Kaoru house wasn't truly perfect, and ibfact he fell down on Unchiko's transfer machine, breaking it down. Nad so he's forced to stay on Earth along with Hachiko and Nyako, in Unchiko's house. Just like his brothers, he's very cute, but he's also more mature and reflective, and he looks like to be the only "straight" guy in all the serie. Although this, he's got a strange soft spot toward his brothers (particulary toward Hachiko) and under-ten aged boys, infact you always see him hanging around with them, and offering them candies. His only weak point is the green tea : if he just take an only drop of green tea, he gets drunk and became a "sado-king", and his personality changes at all. This happens because he got a strange intolerance to the tea. His brother Nyako always force him to take tea, so he can see him changing personality, and Nyako really likes it. That's why Toriko doesn't really like his little brother Nyako...^^; His favourite hobbies are to read, to watch TV, to work with his speaking-pocket-computer, to study and to sing. Infact Toriko got a really wonderful voice, and knows how to sing good. He loves singing, also because he's very appreciated by Hachiko, that always congrats with him everytime he hear him singing. His greatest dream is to meet the pervy girl Natsumi Buta, that he considers very much, and perhaps also loves. He doesn't like to fight, but she had to defend himself all the same from Unchiko, Sei e Nyako, and so he use his personal weapon, the suteki rabu ken. This is a light beamb that he shoots from his hands, and sometimes he uses it as a kick. It must be noticed that he ends up all his sentences with the word "chuu" ("Chuu" is the honomatopeic word for the birdies' sound, [and rarely for the chicks' one] in Japanese, but it also means "little mouse, mousy", or a big kiss-smack^^). However, he always tries to avoid to say it. He can also fly thanks to the little sparrow's wings that he got on his back.
